Answer: The losing candidate got 1240 and the winning candidate got 1560.

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide the number of votes by the number of people: 2800/2= 1400.

add 160 to one candidate and subtract 160 from the other.

What are the coordinates of point b on ac such that ab=2/5ac
son4ous [18]

Answer:

(-\frac{36}{7},\frac{40}{7})

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of points A and C are (-8, 6) and (2, 5).

If a point B intersects the segment AB in the ratio of 2 : 5

Then coordinates of the point B will be,

x = \frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}

and y = \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}

where (x_1, y_1) and (x_2,y_2) are the coordinates of the extreme end of the segment and a point divides the segment in the ratio of m : n.

For the coordinates of point B,

x = \frac{2\times 2+(-8)\times 5}{2+5}

  = -\frac{36}{7}

y = \frac{2\times 5+5\times 6}{2+5}

  = \frac{40}{7}

Therefore, coordinates of pint B will be,

(-\frac{36}{7},\frac{40}{7})
